OENERAL SUMMARY.
The beginning of the month of May mas marked Ily un-
usually cool weather in the Great Valley of California and along the coast north of the Tehachapi. The cool spell soon
came to an end, and the month as a whole was one of unusual
warmth. Near the close of the month there was a warm spell
with afternoon temperatures above 90" on the coast, and ranging from 100" to 120" in the interior. hlemorial Day was
the hottest day of the year. At San Francisco the niasimuin
temperature was go", making the clay the warmest in May
since 1896. It is worth noting that on this same date a tem- perature of 120" was recorded at Yunia, which, it is thought, breaks the record for high temperatures. At 3 stations in
California reliable records of 121 " F. were obtained on May 30.
Throughout the Great Valley and also in the southern counties very high temperatures were recorded,
Reports from other sections, particularly from the central
portion of the country, will doubtless show a cool May, as the
excessive heat noted on the Pacific Slope does not appear to
have extended east of the Rocky Mountains. In some respects
May throughout California was more like the average mid-
summer month. Owing to almost ideal distribution of rainfall
with regard to frequency during the winter and early spring
months, the hills remained green until near the end of May,
notwithstanding the comparative absence of rain and the gen-
eral dryness of later months.
The snow cover iii the mountains, which was none too heavy
at the beginning of the month, steadily decrea3ecl in depth, and
the rate of melting may be taken as a fair average because there
were few disturbing factors. The station at Suniinit reported 13 inches of snow on the ground at the beginning of the month
and 3 inches at the close. During the first 10 clays of the month the rate of melting was exceedingly slow and practically no
decrease occurred. The snow cover disappeared, in the 6,000-
foot level, at the rate of 10 inches during the last 2 decades of
May, or about half an inch a day. The precipitation was less throughout the entire State than
during any May since 1903, when state averages began to be
recorded. The average precipitation for California during May, based upon records of over 150 stations, was as follows:
1903, 0.14 inch; 1904, 0.22 inch; 1905, 2.18 inches; 1906, 3.19
inches; 1907, 0.57 inch; 1908, 1.63 inch; 1909, 0.23 inch; 1910,
0.18 inch.
The month was, therefore, unusually dry. An interesting record of rainfall at San Francisco, covering a period of 61 years,
shows that there have been but 6 Mays during this period in which the precipitation a t that place was less than during the
present month.
TEMPERATURE.
The mean temperature for the State was far above the normal.
The mean values for California in recent years are as follows: 1903,63.5"; 1904, 64.9"; 1905, 59.6"; 1906, 59.8"; 1907,61.5";
1908,58.0°; 1909,60.4"; 1910, 65.5". Comparecl with recent previous years the present May
breaks the record. It will be noted that i t was fully 5 " warmer than the same month last year, which, while dry like the present
May, was a cool month. It is not easy to explain why these 2 dry inonths should exhibit such a cliff erence in temperature.
It may, however, be of some interest to note that there was a great difference in the depth of the snow cover in the 2 months.
The extent and depth of t.he cover were greater during the cool
month. One other relation is significant. There was an excess
of wind during May, 1909. During the present May the prevail-
ing northwest, summer winds were neither high nor prolonged.
One fact! which lends weight to tahe belief that there is some
general relation between the escessive heat of the present May
and the absence of ptroiig winds is that the coldest May recorded
since 1903 was that! of 1908, which was the windiest May on record.
The mean temperature was 65.5", or 3.2" above the normal.
At many stations the monthly mean temperature was 6" or
more above the normal. On May 30 high temperatures were
reported at nearly all points. At Blythe, Heber, and Indio,
121 " was recorded. Temperatures ranging from 110" upward were quite general near t,he close of the month, both in the
Great Valley and in the Salton Desert. The lowest tenipera- ture recorded was Go on May 5 at Tamarack, elevation, 8,000
feet. Elsewhere is published a note describing an ascent of Mount Whitney on May 23, when a minimum temperature of
-23" F., represenbing the lowest temperature of the whole
winter, was noted. At 7 a. in. of the date mentioned the tem-
perature was 22".
From an agricultural standpoint temperatures throughout
the State were favorable, escept during the midclle of the month
ancl at the end.
It is reported that on certain spots in the delta lands there were some frosts which damaged beans slightly.
PRECIPITATION.
The greatest 24-hour rainfall was 1.10 inch at Inskip. The greatest monthly amount was at Monumental, 3.19 inches. More than half the stations reported no rain during the month.
Froin an agricultural standpoint the ahsence of rain was not
beneficial. While some slight damage to hay and cherries generally results from heavy May rains, still the ultimate good
resulting from the water supply at this time is generally recog-
nized. May rains, as a rule, mean heavy yields of fruit and
grain.
SNOWFALL.
Not in many years has the snow cover been so restricted.
Owing to the comparatively light fall during the previous
month the depth of snow on the ground was lees at the close of
the nionbh bhan for many years. The season, so far as travel
in the mountains is concerned, is an open one, and pack trains will probably find no difficulty in getting through the high passes
of the Sierra early in June. At the close of May .snow was prac-
tically gone at elevations below 5,000 feet.
The outlook is not favorahle for an ample supply of water
during the long Buniiner.
EARTHQUAKES.
On May 6, at 8:46 a. in., a light earthquake shock was felt
at Bakersfield, also at Fresno and points in the Sail Joaquin
Valley. On May 13 light shocks were felt in southern Cali- fornia, especially in the Sail Bernarclino Valley, at 10:20 p. m.,
ancl a shock was reported also a t Needles at 10:35 p. m. On May 15, about 8 a. ni., light shocks were felt at San Diego and
Los Angeles.
The following note from the official in charge at Los Angeles
describes the shocks of May 13 and 15:
The shock on the 13th way light and occurred at 10:22 p. m. The motion was apparently froin north to south and was sufficient to stop clocks in the downtown ofice buildings and at soiiie plum in the residential section of the city. That of the 16th was inore marked and consisted of 2 ~hockl, one at 7:47 a. in. and the other at 7:4i:J5 a. ni. Both vibrations were from north to south. The latter shock was sufficient to rattle windows and crockery and to stop cloclia. No damage resulted.

NOTES ON RIVER CONDITIONS IN THE SACRAMENTO AND BAN
JOAQUIN VALLEYS DURING MAY, 1910.
Sacramento wtershed.-All streams in the Sacramento drain- age basin were lower than for many years previous during the
corresponding month. This was particularly so of the Sacra- mento River itself, which, at many points, was much lower
than for any May of which there is authentic record.
At Red Bluff the average gage reading, 3.1 feet, is 0.5 foot- lower than that of May, 1908, when the Sacramento and tribu-
taries were unusually low. At Colusa and Knights Landing
the river averaged 2 feet and 0.7 foot, respectively, below the
May stage of 1908. At Sacramento City the average stage,
16.4 feet, was 0.2 foot above that of May, 1908, but with this
exception, it was over 2 feet lower than for any May during the past ten years.
The Yuba River a t Marysville maintained a fairly good
stage of water from the 1st to the 14th, inclusive; after this
period, however, the river receded rapiflly, and at the close of
the month was over 1 foot lower than on the l-ith, antl the monthly average was over 2 feet lower than for hiay, 1908.
The Feather River at Oroville was unifornily low during the entire nionth with an average of over 1 foot below the low
water of May, 1908. The range of this stream, between the
highest stage on the 1st and the lowest on the 31st, was only
2.6 feet, indicating that the water reserve in the mountains
has become exhausted from 20 to 30 days earlier than usual.
While the American River carried consitlerably less water
than is usual during the late spring, this stream kept up reason-
ably well until the beginning of the last decade, wheii it hcgan
receding, and there was a steady fall up to the end of the month. The American as a whole was much helom thc May normal.
It is now evident that not only will there he a marked sliort-
age of water during the coming suinnier throughout the , S acra- mento watershed, but i t is not unlikely that navigation in the
Sacramento River, beyond the tide limits, will either Ije seri- ously retarded or else suspended before the beginning of the nrxt
wet season. Sun Jmquin watershed-At the heginning of slay d l
streams in this watershed were consitleral~ly above the 1i~iiu1
spring stage, and reasonably high stages obtained until the
middle of the month; afterwards there was a steady &dine. The San Joaquin itself, froni the mouth of the Tuoluinne to tlic
lower islands, continued above the May normal during the
entire month. General conditions now indicate that there will 1x1 an ahsence
of the usual June rises in the San Joaquin and tril>utaries, anti
that the extreme low water, that usually culminates during the last of August, will occur this season from 20 to 30 days earlier.
The rainfall throughout the entire central valleys of the State
was markedly deficient.-N. €2. Taylor, Locd Forecaster.
A MAY ASCENT OF MOUNT WHITNEY, CAL.
It may be recalled that last summer the Weather Bureau
sent a representative to the summit of Mount Whitney, with
the Campbell-Abbot party, representing the Lick Observatory
and the Smithsonian Institution. A small building has now
been erected by the Smithsonian. Before leaving the sum-
mit Professor McAdie and Mr. G. F. hlarsh made a temporary
shelter, fastening the same to the north wall of the observatory
building, about 5 feet above the ground. Masinium antl mini-
nium thermometers were placed in proper position. On May
24, 1910, the following telegram was received from Mr. (;. F.
Marsh, cooperative observer atr Lone Pine :
Just returned from hlount Whitncy; found c-verythiiig all riglit; iiiininium twenty-three degrees below zero, Iiiusiniuni fifty-five. At sevrii thi* morning minimum twenty-two :ilJovc. irst bnow ten thousand fect.

Mr. Marsh's feat was quite an achieveinent and it, was very
gratifying to learn that the instruments had successfully with-

stood the winter's storms. The temperature -23" F., prob- ably fairly represents the lowest temperature of the winter at
the highest point in the United States proper. Lower tempera- tures were recorded at lower elevations; for example, -30" F. at Alturas, C'al., on January 3, 1909, elevation 4,460 feet; and
-29" F. at Tamarack, Cal., elevation 8,000 feet, on January
5, 1909. The result confirms our previous experiment made in the winter of 1898, when a minimum thermometer was
esposecl in a rough shelter a few feet above the ground, near
the sunmit of Mount Lyell, elevation 13,217 feet. The lowest temperature recorded by the thermometer when found the
nest summer was - 17 " F. During the same period tempera-
tures as low as -30" F. were recorded at, Bodie, Cal., elevation
8,348 feet. Prof. J. E. Church, jr., so well known in connection with the
work at Mount Rose, states that the minimum temperature at
that point during the winter was prohably on February 1, the
instrunieiits reading as follows: Exposed, -7.5" F.; minimum,
reset, - 8 " F. ; t hermograph, - 5 " F. Unfortunately the summit
was not visited between December l G , 1909, antl February 1,1910.
The minimum for January 5 can not, therefore be given. The iiiininiuin theriiiometer for this period registered - 28" F., almost the s:tnie as on Mount Wliitney; but the real minimum
he thinks is represented by the figure given above. Professor C'hurch holtls the opinion that the index had been shaken down
about 20" by wind action.
PUMPED IRRIGATION.
The following abstract of a paper read at the Pacific Coast meeting of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, May
t i , 1910, on '' Hydroelectric Power as Applied to Irrigation," by
.J(~hii ('offec. Hayes, shows in part the work clone in California
in clcveloping agriculture by pumped irrigation.
The pnper covers a wide range and goes into many details
concerning the construct.ion of various power plants in Cali-
fornia, showing also tlie way in which the water is diverted.
The reader who cares for a further knowledge of the paper is
referrrd to the Journal of Electricity, Power, antl Gas, Vol. 24,
Xo. 23, June 4, 11310.

The chararter of tlir lsncl is, of rouw. of primary iniportanw, and the lercrmtagc of good land should be catrefully determined.

they brin e x d n g l y good pr;oeS and the growth of this industry has been very rapid . The present citrus districts, as in fact is most of the land in the citrus belt, are above the existing irrigating canals. which in most instances divert all of the water available from the rivers, and are therefore entirely depcndent on ground waters for irrigation; and, as the profits from this crop warrant a large expenditure. it is naturally the hest market for power for umping purpow. Aside from citrus fruitq, all kinds of high class profuets, such aa deciduous fruits, berrics, vegetables, nuts, vines, and alfalfa, are to some extent also irrigated by pumped ground water. The amount of water required for the irrigation of different products varies t o such an extent in the different communities that it ib inipomilible to get any figures which would be at all accurate. The character of the soil is accountable for the difference t o a large estent, but the cost of water and the personal equation are accountable to a much larger exfcnt. There is usuallv a marked tendency t o the overuw of water. The duty of irrigation water in California is believed to average about, 2 feet in depth in addition to the average rainfall. In the Imperial Vallcy, in 1906, 120,OOO acres were irrigated and a total average depth of 2.04 feet was used, the main crop hcing grain. In H:tn Diego County on land planted to citrus fruits an average depth of 1.5 foot waa used from 1889 t o 1899. Around LOP Angeles it is estimated that an average depth of 2.4 feet is used. In the Modeato and Turlock districts as much as S feet to 10 feet in depth wm used at the start; but in 190s the depth varied from 1.3 foot to 3.6 feet. In the Fmno district very little water iR applied to the surfare of the hind at present, the land being subirrigated by seepage from thc caiials. The San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys arc favorable storage basins for ground waters, as the only outlet is the San Francisco Bay through the narrow straits of Carquinez. The elevation of the Lindsay district, 3rd
miles away, is about 300 feet, and the ground waters must. therefore, of necessity travel very slowly and he in large quantities. In determining the policies and the scope of a proposed hydroelrctric system for the supply of power for pumped irrigation, it is necmary to
determine at the outset the esact territory to be rcrved and thc general policies to be followed a.4 regards charges, contracts, estcnsions. etc., or, in other words, a definite goal must be set, the power company niust do erery-
thing possible to assist devclopnient, and any inhabitant in any wtion of the territory must be supplied with powrr whenever it is requircd. Therr- fore, the power system simply grow up with the country, and whilv this growth is taking place (it of neccor4.v must takv ninny years) it must bc
conwidwed that the powcr system is in couw of construction during the entire period. This is the main feature in diich the power project tlcpmd- ing entirely upon an irrigation market differs from the project supplying ordinary commercial busin- in an already well-settld community, and this is a difference which is scldoni fully understood and the titne elcmcmt not fully provided for.
SPIDERS AND ANTICYCLONIC WINDS.
By FORD A. CARPENTER, Local FOWXM~T.
An article on “ Bird-Flight ancl Air-Navigation ” in the cur-
rent number of Century Magazine ’ states that ‘‘ It, was fount1
by a rigid comparison of the birds’ movements with the weather
map that their flights were invariably xtartecl hy winds tmanat-
iiig from cyclonic or anticyclonic winds.” It has been observed
in this locality that spiders also utilize the anticyclonic winds.
Whenever the weather map shows a high area over the north-
west, the spreading of this area over Washington and Oregon starts the northerly or northeasterly winds flowing down to the
so-called permanent low area in sout hem California, when a
close observer may see flying spider web?. Certain species throw out their thin gossamer silk and,
buoyed in the air, are wafted considerable distances. Almost
the first indication of the northerly or northeasterly winds (which are popularly termed “desert winds”) is the quantity of
tiny lengths of spider silk that float in the air. Until the
advent of the glass screen to the automobile, these flying webs
were annoying to the automobilists, causing irritation to the
eyes. The spiders’ silky streamers may be seen on the trolley
and telephone wires in the early morning of a dry day.
HYDROGRAPHIC DATA OF THE SACRAMENTO RIVER.
Compiled from the recorda of the United States Geological Survey by W. B. CLAPP, District Engineer.
The Sacramentso River is the largest and most important
river in California. It drains an area of approximately 27,100 - _-- - - . - - - . - __ - - - __ . __ -_ MacMechen and Dienstbach. Bird flights and air navigation.”

square miles in the north-central part of the State. The boundaries of its drainage basin are determined by the Sierra Nevada and Warner Mountains on the east, Mount Shasta on
the north, and the Trinity Mountains and Coast Range on the
west,. Its length is about 230 miles north and south, with a width of about 150 miles east and west.
The Sacramento River has its source near the south boundary
of Siskiyou County, near the town of Sisson, in springs issuing
from the western slope of Mount Shasta. It flows southerly
for a distance of about 370 miles, finally discharging into Suisun Ray, near Collinsville, about 50 miles by water from San Fran-
cisco. The Sacramento, above the mouth of the Pit River, ha*
a length of only about 50 miles and is a comparatively small stream, but its course is through an exceptionally beautiful
canyon, its flow being continually increased by water discharg- ing from numerous large springs, among which are the famous
Shasta Springs. Below the mouth of the Pit River the Sacra-
mento is a stream of considerable magnitude and is navigable
as far north as Red Bluff, about 250 miles from its mouth and
300 miles from San Francisco. The most important tributaries of the Sacramento River are from the east, anrl they drain the western slope of the Sierra
Nevada. The Pit River is the most important affluent, con-
sidering its drainage area ancl minimum flow. In fact, Pit River is the main stream and the Sacramento River, above its
junction with the Pit, is a comparatively small tributary. The principal affluents of the Sacramento below Pit River, in order
from north to south, are Cow, Battle, Antelope, Mill, Deer,
C‘hico, ancl Butte creeks, Feather, Yuba, Bear, ancl American
rivers from the east, and Clear. Cottonwood. Thomes, Stony,
Cache, anrl Puta creeks from the west. A4pproxiniately 84 per
cent of the Sacramento Basin is mountainous, with many high
peaks ancl ranges and numerous small upland meadow valleys. The other lG per cent, coniprising the gently sloping areas along
the lower reaches of the Sacramento River, constitutes what is
known as the Sacramento Valley. The inean annual precipitation in the basin varies with the
altitude. It is least on the floor of the valley, where it averages
22 inches, but it increases rapidly in the higher mountain area*,
until atr elevations of from 3,000 to 5,000 feet, occasional annual
falls of over 100 inches occur. In the extreme northeastern
part of the basin the annual precipitation is comparatively
light, even on the higher elevations. The greater part of t.he annual rainfall comes in the winter months, particularly in
December ancl January, when about 18 and 20 per cent, re-
spectively, of the mean annual rainfall is receivecl. February and March each bring about 13 per cent and November 12 per cent, so that about 76 per cent of the mean annual rainfall
occurs in the period November to March, inclusive. April, May, and October furnish 20 per cent more, leaving the other 4
months practically rainless. The precipitation appears chiefly
as snow at the higher altitudes. Ordinarily the snow melts slowly, not wholly disappearing until late summer, thus equaliz-
ing and extending the stream flow. At times the snow line
estends to the lower elevations near the rim of the valley, which,
being followed by rising temperature and heavy rains, procluces
floods of greater or less severity. The Sacramento Valley probably furnishes the greatest field
for development in the United States. The possibilities for irrigation are extensive. Considerable irrigation development,
has been carried on and the advantages for further irrigation are attracting the attention of capital throughout the United States.
Many excellent storage reservoir sites exist in clifferent parts of
the Sacramento Basin. The water supply is plentiful, if prop- erly controlled for distribution. The valley suffers from
frequent floods which occur in winter and early spring, the
worst of recent years occurring in 1904, 1907, and 1909. The total area of the Sacraniento Valley is about 4,250 square miles,
about 40 per cent of which suffers from floods by overflow.
